Paradoxes

[AnthroHeart]

What are some apparent paradoxes that don't involve time travel? Ra said that in the end all paradoxes have a solution, or something along those lines. I'm curious to know some of these paradoxes.

[zvonimir]

There are those who totally believe in fate. They say all things are pre-des- tined, and we cannot change them. Others believe that there is no such thing as destiny at all - that we totally make our own reality. The Children teach that these two concepts are a paradox, and both are true. The paradox is this: we have free will and shape the future through our choices, but everything is pre-destined by a definite flow/Universal plan/pattern. Impossible, yet true.

i totally believe in fate.

"The seeming contradictions of determinism and free will melt away when it is accepted that there is such a thing as true simultaneity." ~RA

[AnthroHeart]

Those were good examples.
Fate makes sense because Creator is unmoved and unchanging.

Any unsolvable paradoxes in this density? Well, solvable ones are fine too. Pretty much any apparent paradox.

There is one where the choice that you didn't make also happens in another reality. Infinite parallel realities. How can there be infinite, and one at the same time?

Another is when Bashar says "The present is not determined by the past, and the future is not dependent on the present. There is only the now." That's another apparent paradox. Past and future are illusion.

The unified nature of everything seems paradoxical.

Supposedly, "all is one," there is an underlying unity to all things and we are not separate.

Yet here we are, all separate and whatnot.

I agree. How else could we hurt another? If we could only know we were unconditionally loved by countless beings. Not just mentally knew, but felt it too.

Ra on exactly this point:

13.9 Questioner: Then can you tell me how [the] galaxy and this planetary system were formed?

Ra: I am Ra. You must imagine a great leap of thought in this query, for at the last query the physical, as you call, it, universes were not yet born.

The energies moved in increasingly intelligent patterns until the individualization of various energies emanating from the creative principle of intelligent infinity became such as to be co-Creators. Thus the so-called physical matter began. The concept of light is instrumental in grasping this great leap of thought as this vibrational distortion of infinity is the building block of that which is known as matter, the light being intelligent and full of energy, thus being the first distortion of intelligent infinity which was called by the creative principle.

This light of love was made to have in its occurrences of being certain characteristics, among them the infinite whole paradoxically described by the straight line, as you would call it. This paradox is responsible for the shape of the various physical illusion entities you call solar systems, galaxies, and planets, all revolving and tending towards the lenticular.

This seems to me to be Ra's attempt at communicating Eulers Identity in an intuitive Fashion.

It is absolutely paradoxical; we cannot understand it, and we don't know what it means, but we have proved it, and therefore we know it must be the truth.

That's a very interesting Ra quote Ashim. Unfortunately I'm not grasping its relation to the paradox I was talking about. In fact I am not sure I grasp the quote in general. My mind is not making a connection between light having the characteristic of "the infinite whole described by the straight line" and how that is responsible for the shape of the lenticular revolutions of celestial bodies, and then again how that relates to the idea that supposedly "all is one" and yet we are here bathed in separation.

It relates directly to your question about separation.
Ra describes the physical universe as an illusion.
Our perception of separation is cosmic 'smoke and mirrors'.

Our highest self exists 'outside' of this construct within the 'pool' of time/space where everything exists simultaneously.
There is a constant 'flashing' or harmonic resonance at a rate that we call the Planck time (tP) which represents the border of dimensionless space. This pulsing flows from anti-matter to matter through 'stars'/white holes and black holes - a universe of polarity. Thus all incarnations or lives (that are happening simultaneously are 'veiled' from each other whilst affording conscious awareness depending on the density of the experience.
Essentially our physical bodies along with all matter are created and uncreated in a blink of the cosmic eye.
An interesting aspect of this is the fact the we observe light to travel at the speed of 186,000 miles per second through space, but paradoxically the light you view from a distant star is the same light when it reaches your retina as the moment it originated from the star. There is no 'time lapse' for the light because time becomes infinite at that speed. For example, communication such as the Ra contact was instantaneous regardless of the 3rd density measurement of distance between Carla (on earth) and Ra, presumably in the Sirius A system at a distance of 2.6 parsecs.
